Part of the small format Y series (A2 size), this replicates sheet
2400.3 from the 2400 West Country Chart Pack
Successor to Henry Irving's long-established guide to the nooks and
crannies of this fascinating corner of the east coast of England,
this new title has extended coverage under the authorship of
retired harbourmaster and local cruising sailor Peter Harvey. Some
choose to bypass this beautiful section of coast and its
extraordinary natural habitats, but this cruising guide gives
inspiration to anyone who wishes to explore the many shallow creeks
and deeper historic harbours of Norfolk, Lincolnshire and the
Humber. With thoroughly updated text and plans and new photographs
throughout, The Wash and Humber remains an essential companion to
this interesting and rewarding section of our coastline.
This edition includes the latest official UKHO data, combined with
additional information sourced from Imray's network to make it
ideal for small craft. The chart has been fully revised throughout.
Plans included: Holes Bay (1:10 000) Salterns Marina (1:7500)
Moriconium Quay & Lake Yard Marina (1:3000)
Classical and modern theories have given us a degree of noise
immunity by defining the sufficient statistic of the mean of the
likelihood function. The generalized theory moves beyond these
limitations to determine the jointly sufficient statistics of the
mean and variance of the likelihood function. Signal and Image
Processing in Navigational Systems introduces us to the generalized
approach, and then delves rigorously into the theory and practical
applications of this approach. This volume represents the most
in-depth discussion of the generalized approach to date, providing
many examples and computer models to demonstrate how this approach
raises the upper limits of noise immunity for navigation systems,
leading to better detection performances. This book is vital for
signal and image processing experts, radar, communications,
acoustics, and navigational systems designers, as well as
professionals in the fields of statistical pattern recognition,
biomedicine, astronomy, and robotics who wish to extend the
boundaries of noise immunity and improve qualitative performance of
their systems.
This edition consists of 11 extra chart sheets, twice the coverage
of the previous edition, and incorporates all the latest official
bathymetric surveys. Created in association with the Clyde Cruising
Club for use alongside their sailing directions, coverage includes
detail of this delightful area of Scotland and there is reference
to the popular large scale Antares Charts. The 22 chart sheets in
this pack provide all the necessary information for passage
planning, detailed approach to yacht havens and marinas, and the
numerous anchorages and sailing areas recommended for small craft.
Coverage includes large scale charts from Kintyre sailing north,
with newly included charts of Kintyre, Gigha, Islay, Jura and
Colonsay. Large scale coverage continues with Mull, Loch Linnhe,
Lock Etive, Lock Sunart Coll, Tiree to Ardnamurchan. Full details
of charts and their scales are listed below. Also available wiro
bound, see code IC2800-3W. 1st edition charts Y80, Y81, Y82, Y83,
Y84, Y85, Y86 and Y87 have been published that replicate charts
2800.4, 2800.10, 2800.11, 2800.12, 2800.13, 2800.15, 2800.17 &
2800.18 respectively and sold individually. These are part of our
'small format Y chart series' that mirror coverage from the
corresponding atlas and are A2 size. For details of these please

The technical details of British warships were recorded in a set of
plans produced by the builders on completion of every ship. Known
as the `as fitted' general arrangements, these drawings documented
the exact appearance and fitting of the ship as it entered
service.Today these plans form part of the incomparable collection
of the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich, which is using the
latest scanning technology to make digital copies of the highest
quality. This book is one of a series based entirely on these
draughts which depict famous warships in an unprecedented degree of
detail - complete sets in full color, with many close-ups and
enlargements that make everyaspect clear and comprehensible.
Extensive captions point the reader to important features to be
found in the plans, and an introduction covers the background to
thedesign.HMS Birmingham was selected for the series because this
famous interwar `Town' class cruiser is unusually well documented.
Unusually, three separate sets of plans survive-as completed in
1937, as refitted in 1943, and as modernized in 1952-which allows
this novel form of anatomy to cover the whole of the ship's long
career.
Plans included: Charlotte Amalie (St Thomas) (1:30,000) Cruz Bay
(St John) (1:20,000) Road Harbour, Sea Cow Bay & Nanny Cay
Marina (Tortola) (1:20,000) Benner Bay (St Thomas) (1:20,000) Great
Camanoe to Scrub Island (1:20,000)
Full information on boating facilities is included in the mapping,
as are all the essential details on restricting dimensions, locks
and bridges. Also shown are pubs, the Thames Path and other
features of special interest. Large-scale insets of Oxford,
Abingdon, Reading, Henley, Windsor and Eton, the River Wey junction
and the entrance to the Grand Union Canal add to the clarity of
this well presented map.
